I'm loading 6.5 Creedmoor first... since that's my newest rifle. I think I'll eventually (maybe?) load all of my other calibers if it works out to be fun and is an economic advantage. I have an old .30-06, a bunch of 9s, a Kimber 45, a bunch of 22s, an AR, and now the 6.5.

How are you fixed for bullets, powder and primers?

Does the case use large or small rifle primers I know there are both versions out there.

I ordered primers yesterday (Small CCI #400 @ 1000) and they'll be here on Friday. I ordered and received the Lapua brass (x100) a few days ago. I'm going to Scheels this afternoon and picking up some powder they have in stock... Winchester StaBALL. That will get me to the weekend so I can start loading.

I do not have any bullets yet but I'm hoping they'll have some at Scheels that will be decent.

Looks like Scheels has a lot of options for bullets in stock:
